Kyocera, in partnership with UScellular, has launched the unlocked version of DuraSport 5G, a rugged MIL-STD-810H 5G Android 13 device that is engineered to withstand drops, dirt, water immersion, and the elements.
Its rugged design and ability to be washed and sanitized to eliminate grit and grime from day-to-day use is a standout feature for those using it in tougher conditions.
Tested to withstand drops up to 5 feet on concrete, the DuraSport is MIL-STD-810H- and IP6X-rated to offer protection from drops, shock, extreme temperatures, dust, and water submersion up to 6.5 feet.
It has a 6.1-inch scratch- and shatter-resistant touchscreen display designed to work when wet or while wearing gloves. The device has a fingerprint sensor or facial recognition activation feature.
A programmable key on the side of DuraSport 5G allows customization to fit users’ needs, whether it’s instant access to a frequently used app, one-touch connection to Google Assistant, or hundreds of contacts through PTT (Push-To-Talk)4.
Weighing in at 6.5 ounces, the DuraSport 5G doesn't add much to what crew members are already hauling around on a jobsite.
From a sound perspective, DuraSport provides clear sound with dual noise-cancelling microphones and HD Voice including aptX Audio to deliver high-definition audio over Bluetooth.
